Question
Chapter 17, Problem 29P
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
Theterminology intramolecular Williamson reaction is to be explained by writing the structure of the product for the given reaction.
Concept introduction:
The Williamson reaction is the synthesis of ether by nucleophilic substitution usingalkoxide ion.
In case of intramolecular Williamson reaction, the attacking and leaving groups are part of a single molecule and form cyclic ether.
